poll for the bored: zane lowe or steve lamacq?

candymoan · 01.11.2007, 06:43 AM

i'm asking, because i really don't know..
zane lowe has spot-on moments, but they are rare..
lamacq's name is coming up frequently..

so, give us a hand, and help decide...
oh, and the magic word is: "please"..

Pookie · 01.11.2007, 06:48 AM

Why why why why why, oh why, would you want to listen to either?

Why!?

porkmarras · 01.11.2007, 06:57 AM

No,thanks.

candymoan · 01.11.2007, 07:19 AM

because it's really really difficult get hold of decent music in istanbul...
most of the people think "edgy" refers to cheesy, depressive electronica or the worst examples of "world music" category..
it's basic, simple frustration with the mainstream media...

i picked both are shite.

jon boy · 01.11.2007, 08:11 AM

cant stand either of them. both wouldnt think twice of selling their mother for a few more years in the spotlight.

I dont know about Corporate shits, but i find both quite annoying, but not so much lamaq. Zane Lowe has a list of irritations longer than my arm although to be fair he does seem to know his stuff.

i can't stand zane lowe, the mere thought of him is already bringing on apoplectic spasms. lamacq, i'm completely indifferent.

racehorse · 01.11.2007, 12:46 PM

i'm not really bothered. don't know enough about them to have an opinion as i don't listen to radio one (because it's bollocks)

As far as Radio One presenters go, Huw Stephens is far cooler than either of those two.

On which subject, I was just listening to the podcast of Huw's show (http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/huwstephens/) and noticed that while Zane Lowe is away, some guy from janglewank blandmeisters Snow PAtrol is taking over. So remember: even if things don't seem great, they are usually better than they could be.

that's a bit of a cop out

Lammo. Come on. It's Lammo! Ok, so he only plays rubbish, but it's Lammo! Zane Lowe can chew heavily on my haemarrhoids.

Do you not think that he always gets away with being slagged off simply because he is a nice chap?C'mon,he played so many rubbish bands over the years but he gets all this adulation just because he sucks major anus.Him and that soppy tart,what's her name again?At least Mary Anne Hobbs does play some interesting music coming from the more mitigated fringes of electronica etc.

Gideon Coe on 6music is the best BBC DJ, his voice has soothed me into many a hangover. 6music is the best thing to happen to radio since Xfm went wank 5 years ago.

They are all slaves to the BBC playlist in the end. Im sure Lamaq can see that The Kooks are just Cast with less wrinkles. This poll is just a matter of pragmatics really.
